A link as people share it (mobile, short or with tracking), a handle, an ID, or words to search. Each endpoint accepts every common form of its input.

Yes. Every request reads the platform when you send it, unless you allow a cached answer.

What does null mean in a response?

Unknown. A field the platform doesn't show is null, never zero or an empty string, so a real zero always means zero.

Are the fields the same on every platform?

Yes. 27 kinds of data have one schema each. Fields only one platform has sit under platform_specific.

What happens when a platform changes its pages?

We update our parsers. Your fields stay the same, and every endpoint's live status is public.

Do you read private or logged-in content?

No. Only public data that anyone can see without an account: no logins, no private profiles, no paywalled content.

Can my AI agent use it?

Yes. Add the MCP server and sign in with your browser, and your agent can call every endpoint. Or paste our prompt into your coding agent. The docs are also published as Markdown and llms.txt.

Reddit Scraper API: Posts, Profiles, Comments & More

What Reddit data can you get?

Public Reddit posts with their upvotes, comment counts and media, comment threads with their replies, and user profiles with karma and trophies. You also get subreddits with their rules and weekly visitors, a user's posts and comments, engagement figures over their latest posts, and transcripts of video posts. Search posts and comments by keyword, sitewide or in one subreddit, and find users and subreddits by name or topic.

Why not the official Reddit API?

Reddit's Data API needs approval under its Responsible Builder Policy, and commercial use needs a separate agreement with Reddit.

No approval to wait for
One API key works on every endpoint. There's no app to get reviewed and no account to connect.
Anything public
Read what anyone can see without logging in, not only the accounts you manage or that authorized your app.
No daily quota
You pay per request. Plans have no rate limit, only a ceiling that stops a runaway loop.

Call the Reddit API from your code.

Copy the request for your language, or hand it to your agent.

Does the Reddit Post API return the upvote count?

Yes, as the score: upvotes minus downvotes, the number Reddit shows beside the arrows, with the upvote ratio beside it. Reddit doesn't show upvotes and downvotes apart.

Does the Reddit Profile API return a Reddit user's follower count?

No. Reddit shows no follower, following or post counts logged out, so those metrics are null. platform_specific.reddit.contribution_count has the posts and comments the profile counts.

Does the Reddit Comments API return nested replies?

Yes. With replies=all, the default, a walk to the last page returns the whole tree, including the replies Reddit hides behind "more replies" links.

Why are the engagement rates null on Reddit?

Because an engagement rate divides a post's interactions by the account's followers or the post's views, and Reddit shows neither logged out. Rather than guess, those fields are null. The upvote and comment averages, the comment-to-upvote ratio, each post against the user's median, posting cadence and the top and bottom post are all computed.
